    not much you can do now if the data is turned off for tracking it. Call your phone provider, report the phone lost/stolen they might be able to bar the phone based on it's imei. Was there a passcode / pin on your phone? It's possible that the battery is dead and that's that until some charges it up.

    Probably cannot do it if data is deactivated.

    Remote Wipe iphone used to deactivate the lost phone app - might want double check before attempting it.

    “Roll it back”

    This is why I'm glad I'm on android and using Cerberus.

    Send a text to the phone to turn data or WiFi on.
    You get emailed the phone number of any new sim card that might be used so you can still text the phone. There's also an option of integrating into the ROM to protect against a factory reset, but I haven't played with that yet. Record audio and video clips and get them emailed to you. Get GPS coordinates through the website
